It hasn't been the best year for blogging, due in part to four writer's festivals, judging three writing competitions,working on four commissioned stories and articles (and the inscription for a war memorial), reading some dozen manuscripts from friends and some more formal mentoring, reviewing books for the ABR, twenty-odd speaking engagements about the place and most importantly, working on my new crime novel, 'Old Scores'. My most recent publication is a longish short story called 'The Cook', published in the latest edition of Westerly.
